• Little Light

She left the house in Ruleville
a daughter of the slaves
in the fields of white and gold
halving for a living
her voice was full of pride
with a blessing from above
and the union of love
a dream of liberty

Sick and tired of being sick and tired
but my heart is strong and my soul renewed

The freedom summer
in the Mississippi heat
a million ears to greet
a thousand eyes wide open
the history and the pain
that travelled ‘cross the land
on the airwaves that day
would never be the same

Sick and tired of being sick and tired
but my heart is strong and my soul renewed

Little light of mine, guiding all the time
little light of mine, it will shine on you tomorrow

Silently they listened
as she hypnotized the crowd
with a voice that boomed aloud
and a message not forgotten
for generations
that have waited to be free
paid the price of misery
and no-one's free 'till we're all free

Sick and tired of being sick and tired
but my heart is strong and my soul renewed

Little light of mine, guiding all the time
little light of mine it will shine
Little light of mine, guiding all the time
little light of mine it will shine on you tomorrow

Let your light shine before men
that they may see your fine works then
give glory to your Father who's in heaven
